This is what I've been playing with this week -- a crumb and string quilt mosaic, original pattern. (Yes, the non-parallel lines are part of the design! It will look much more pulled-together when it's finished. I promise!)
It's been very mindless and tons of fun, especially going through my string/crumb bag and thinking, "Oh, I remember this fabric! I used it in my daughter's quilt 14 years ago!"
I'm having to spend today putting borders on one of my quilt show quilts so I can take it to the quilter on Wednesday. HATE putting on borders. I have about six quilt tops that need them, and I keep procrastinating. I should probably do a border maratho. You know. Kind of like the desensitization process for people with phobias. Because if I made myself do all six quilt borders in one week, I would no longer have border phobia, right?
(Except... Not gonna happen. I hate borders. Have I mentioned that?)
